lyrics

Yes there's a life beyond this shore but we don't swim there, no not anymore.
Go and watch the undertow it's pulling you, it's sinking down your throat
and I just hope you float.

Yes I have heard of distant seas but every word it breaks me at the knees.
So son lets go inside our hole we'll spend our days just counting all the mold,
and doing what we're told.

Cause I know there's trouble in this tide that we won't ever see,
and I know that it's our time to hide from all our misery, son of mine.

Yes I can see it in your eyes you're begging me to live a different life,
and I still know your mind is young and If you swam you'd surely end up done.
So don't you go, don't you go, don't you go.
No don't you go, don't you go.
